点过程强度函数中极点的估计AI 解读

Motivated by spatial data on earthquake epicentres, we consider the problem of estimating properties of poles in point-process intensity functions. Our methods are semiparametric, requiring only 'asymptotic' models for the intensity. They produce estimates of the locations and strengths of poles. Strength is expressed in terms of an exponent of regular variation, and is simply related to the correlation dimension of the underlying point process. It is argued that existing…

杂论：密度估计前的数据锐化AI 解读

We introduce a data-perturbation method for reducing bias of a wide variety of density estimators, in univariate, multivariate, spatial and spherical data settings. The method involves 'sharpening' the data by making them slightly more clustered than before, and then computing the estimator in the usual way, but from the sharpened data rather than the original data. The transformation depends in a simple, explicit way on the smoothing parameter employed for the density…

局部线性平滑的偏差降低AI 解读

The standard approach to local linear regression involves fitting a straight line segment to a curve in a symmetrical way, in that the segment is fitted directly above a small region whose midpoint is the abscissa, x, at which we wish to estimate the curve. In this paper we show that, if the segment is fitted in a skew manner, with its centre a little to the left or right of x, then bias can be reduced by an order of magnitude, without affecting the order of magnitude of…
